O dom da fúria
Moss Jeffries é um adolescente negro que vive em São Francisco, Califórnia. De vez em quando, Moss gostaria de ser alguém diferente: um garoto sem ansiedade ou crises de pânico e cujo pai não foi covardemente assassinado pela polícia californiana. Afinal, é muito difícil ser reconhecido ou julgado nas ruas pela barbárie que lhe arrancou a figura paterna. Essa lembrança é quase que uma prisão para o jovem, e mesmo tendo uma mãe amorosa e corajosa, amigos leais e que esteja descobrindo a leveza do primeiro amor ao lado de Javier... Moss está cansado de se sentir preso. E tudo isso só piora diante da realidade cada vez mais opressora de sua escola que, além de estar sucateada, mantém os alunos sob vigilância policial, sendo tratados com violência e como se fossem criminosos. Algo precisa mudar, imediatamente. Mas quem está disposto a escutar os jovens que estão à margem da sociedade? Com o clima cada vez mais tenso e uma nova tragédia prestes a eclodir, Moss precisa encontrar a sua própria voz e tomar uma decisão: ceder ao medo ou usar a sua fúria como um dom para mudar essa realidade. O dom da fúria é um romance brutal sobre a realidade da juventude negra periférica, e também é sobre luto, amizade, amor e amadurecimento. Um livro importante, para não esquecermos, e que vai reverberar em muitos de nós. ______________________________________________________ "O dom da fúria é uma explosão de furor e de revolução. A estreia bela e brutal de Mark Oshiro prova que qualquer pessoa pode se tornar um herói, e que grandes mudanças ocorrem quando heróis trabalham juntos."
